Business Showcase : Bdaq Token Exchange set to Launch 31st May

Bdaq is the world’s first platform for trading crypto tokens even before they get on exchanges. We provided our investors with equal opportunity so that everyone gets access to ICO tokens, instant liquidity without any delay, so they can sell their tokens as soon as they can buy them.

How are you different?

In the crypto token world, we have come up with many firsts:
Instant Liquidity – We are bringing forth, the world’s first pre-listing token liquidation, decentralized platform, for ERC20 token buying and selling even before their listing on the exchanges.

Smart Investors Match – Bdaq is also powered by our proprietary smart search algorithm that enables us to reach out to prospective and interested crypto investors. We have implemented Big Data analytics techniques to establish patterns between past investors’ activities and token sale requests on Bdaq platform to perform a smart match. We call it Smart Investors Match.

Secure Messaging – For the first time, we are going to introduce instant messaging between Ethereum addresses to make passing the text messages easy between wallets.

Why will you do well?

Bdaq’s team is its pride because it has gathered up the best founders, investors, developers, advisors, experts, and strategists with vast experience in investment and blockchain projects.

Bdaq is powered by Spark10 that runs startup accelerator and an FCA regulated seed fund in London. We are investors who are active in the startup and crypto economy since its inception. We understand the space and Bdaq is a big value addition for crypto investors.

For the first time in the history of crypto investing, investors can sell their tokens immediately after receiving them without having to wait for the tokens to be listed on the Exchanges. This will attract millions of ERC20 token owners to liquidate their token for Ethereum or Bdaq. Additionally, we are building smart investors search (an advanced profiling system) and secure messaging system between two addresses.
These will be the game changes in crypto investing globally.
